Title: A+ cut off prediction
Post by: nubs on November 04, 2011, 12:38:21 pm
How did you guys feel about it? I had done all the past exam papers from VCAA about a month before the actual exam, so naturally I found today's exam to be easier than the past papers

How many marks do you reckon it will take to get an A+?

I think it will be high this year. The exam was piss easy.

Think it will be 59, though many questions were easy, there were 3 ambiguous questions totaling (5) marks.

 I think a lot of the A+ will be around the 60 - 63 range (low A+)

i was spot on for unit 3 XD

It was a lot easier than the mid-year - I'm going to say 62. Quite a bit simpler than past VCAA papers, but I also finished it very early. Did everyone have lots of time left over at the end?

Dear god yes! I had a whole 30 minutes. I just checked over my multichoice and short answer section with a fine tooth comb, optimistically hoping for 100% (probably closer to 72/75)

mm to be honest there were questions which gave you the impression you were right but infact you were wrong ... i reckon the cut off is gonna be around 60 like the mid year because of the ambiguous questions..
